“6th of February with Yoshi in Tokyo”
What a beautiful, interesting and unforgettable day with Yoshi in Tokyo. From the first moment on, when we met in the Shangri- la hotel I felt that I am in best hands of a friend. These 6 hours in which he showed me, in respecting my handicap in problems with walking due to a backbone operation, such great places and by this unforgettable impressions of this pulsing city. Yoshi is very competitive, very concentrated by explaining to me each place we visited. The best guide. From 1 to 10 = the very best with 10 points. Would I ever come back again to Tokyo, would for sure come back to my friend with his heart warm aura, to this great person, to YOSHI.

“Amazing tour!”
Yoshi was an incredible guide for me as a first time solo traveler to Tokyo. He speaks great English and knows the city very very well. He was very informative, fun, interesting, and knows all of the great spots in Tokyo. He was very friendly and funny as well. I highly recommend Yoshi, and I’m so happy I did this tour with him!

“BEST GUIDE EVER”
Yoshi was our guide for a fascinating day in Tokyo. He quickly navigated through the Tokyo, taught us how to approach and behave in shrines and temples, shared much about Japanese customs, religion and history, fielded all of our questions (even those from left field), and met the disparate wishes of a 77 year old grandma and a 22byear old grandson. We moved seamlessly from historic and religious sites, modern architectural wonders, and the young world of tech, geeks, manga and anime. We even visited a "dog cafe" where petless animal lovers could play with puppies. He found budget-conscious restaurants for differing tastes. He was flexible, well-prepared and his English was fluent. We had a few other guides, as well as cruise ship excursions, and the day with him was the best of a two week trip. Kudos for a job well done.
